To get a "reliable", good one you’d have to contact a medical equipment company and spend upwards of several hundreds of dollars. The common retail sold dopplers are unreliable, usually don’t work until the very end of pregnancy, and even if they work, to an untrained user who doesn’t know how to properly manipulate a monitor and where to look for fetal tones, it’s just not a good idea.

I am a big opponent of pregnant women buying dopplers for home use. I understand wanting the reassurance, but in many cases when you can’t find the tones it causes you more stress. Your baby’s movement is all you need for reassurance. Prior to feeling regular movement you just should hang in there and have a little faith, and save your money for something your baby will need after it arrives.

Good luck!
